San Francisco dramatic review (1899)

April 28, 1900 11 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO /IN Of Next Week's Attractions THE COLUMBIA Ward and Vokes, those most amusing of all farce comedy stars, have another week at the Columbia Theatre and will continue to present their musical farce, The Floor Walkers up to and including the evening of Sunday, May 6th. Lucy Daly, Margaret Daly Vokes, Will West, George Sidney, The Chicago Ladies' Quartet are a few of the leading spirits in the entertainment known as The Floor Walkers and their efforts are being appreciated by the large audiences. Some new musical and terpsichorean features are to be included in the program during the coming week. The final performance will take place on the evening of Sunday, May 6. Matinee prices during this engagement are but 25, 50 and 75 cents. Yale's big trick spectacle, The Evil Eye., is announced to follow Ward and Vokes. THE ALCAZAR Beginning Monday, April 30th, and continuing throughout the week with a special Dewey Day Matinee on Tuesday, May 1st and the usual matinees of Saturday and Sunday, there will be presented a beautiful dramatized story of Bret Harte and Edgar Pemberton's the Judgment of Bolinas Plain, entitled Sue. The play is an animated series of beautiful pictures of California during its earlier days and is what may be termed a romantic melo-drama. All of the harsh tenor of a frontier play is shaved from the story and nothing but a strong ideal sentiment of character is revealed. The settings for this play have specially been built and a beautiful production is promised. THE GRAND An Arabian Girl will close a succeesful run on Sunday evening, and Monday night the Casino Furore, In Gay New York, will be produced on a scale of magnificence, with entirely new and beautiful scenery and costumes. Chief among the scenes will be the lobby and stage of the Casino, on which latter an excellent specialty performance will take place. The cast will include the entire company and Arnold Grazer, La Petite Hazel, Edwin Hanford and Bella Hart, who have been specially engaged. There will be a special matinee Tuesday next, Dewey Day, when a good reserved seat can be obtained in the orchestra for 25 cents. THE TIVOLI The rush for seats for the performances of the comic opera, The Wizard of the Nile attheTivoli Opera House, is larger than was shown at any time during the run of The Idol's Eye and the third week of the attraction opens next Monday, with a vast advance sale. The legitimate comedy and abundance of dainty music in The Wizard of the Nile is perfectly presented by the powerful company, and while the principals are individually winning applause, a good share of the approval of the audiences is given to the excellent chorus and the picked orchestra. The Tivoli will follow the Wizard with a big production of the opera, The Three Musketers. THE ORPHEUM The Orpheum management's new bill is top heavy with good things this week. The Fulgora All Star Specialty Company will contribute part of the program; Orpheum stars the rest. Little Fred, who heads the stars, has brought with him from Berlin, a troupe of trained animals, and is said to have the best animal act ever brought to America. Fred is a noted trainer and has got together an act which will long be remembered in San Francisco. The Sidmans will present a comedy sketch, Back Home, something altogether out of the line of the pieces generally seen in vaudeville. Bowman and Ardell are sketch artists and the Brothers Forrest are clowns of international reputation. Etta Butler, the pretty San Francisco girl who made the greatest hit of the season, and of a good many other seasons, in New York, will present some of the imitations which have won her so much fame. The holdovers are : Digby Bell, Rae and Brosche, Mile. Proteand Mildred Stoller. Matinees Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. FISCHER'S The second act of La Traviata which is presented at Fischer's ConcertHou.'-e by the L-ambardi Grand Opera Quartette, is probably the best work that has been done by that talented organization since the opening of the house, and its success warrants another week's holdover. For the week of April 30th the management announces the special engagement of Signor Abramoff. the great basso, and the presentation of the last acts of Faust and Rigoletto. Personal Mention Cart, Dante will manage the American tour of Hogan's Minstrels. William Brewer, formerly with Bachelors Honeymoon and Sam Shaw Companies, joins Neill Company Sunday night as comedian. Mr. E. W. Frost, Manager of the Western Amusement Exchange, goes to Sacramento Monday to look after a number of attractions his exchange has placed there. Hi.
